The AE911Truth Petition
To the Members of the House of Representatives and of the Senate of the United States of America,
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE THAT:
On Behalf of the People of the United States of America, the undersigned Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth and affiliates hereby petition for, and demand, a truly independent investigation with subpoena power in order to uncover the full truth surrounding the events of 9/11/01 – specifically the collapses of the World Trade Center Towers and Building 7. We believe there is sufficient doubt about the official story and therefore the 9/11 investigation must be re-opened and must include a full inquiry into the possible use of explosives that might have been the actual cause of the destruction of the World Trade Center Twin Towers and Building 7.

As a taxpaying U.S. citizen for the past 40 years, in New Jersey and Maine I have a right to request an investigation of the events leading up to/encompassing 9/11/2001, and after the demolishing of the World Trade Centers buildings. It is obvious that the facts of that time period have been manipulated, ignored and suppressed by a terrorist faction involved in the power structure of my government. It is my faith and belief that the terrorist factions involved should and will be brought to justice, but only by honest and forthright investigation. Your oath of office binds you as an American to do just that.

Occupation: Architect
I am an architect, educator and licensed builder. I have a BS in Environmental Design from University of Massachusetts Amherst, 1976, and a B Arch from Boston Architectural college, 1986. I began my career as a project manager with a number of large architectural firms in Boston before I started my own firm, Timeless Architecture, in 1988. I have been promoting and teaching green design for 25 years, starting with the Boston Society of Architects, where I served as co-chair of the Committee on the Environment (COTE), a sub-committee of the BSA that promotes sustainable design in the New England region. I currently teach at the Boston Architectural College in their Sustainable Design Institute and master's program. I lecture frequently in New England conferences for groups such as the Boston Society of Architects, Boston Area Solar Energy Association, Northeast Sustainable Energy Association, and Timber Framer's Guild, and have served on the faculty of Wentworth Institute of Technology. My work has been published in the Boston Globe, Architecture Boston Magazine, Preservation Magazine, Builder Architect Magazine, Cape Cod Islands Home and the Milton Times.
I've been inspired to get involved in this effort by the work of the A & E technical and building professionals like National Medal of Science recipient Lynn Margulis, PhD. With Chris Gruener MA, LMHC of the Boston 9/11 Truth effort, we have submitted a workshop proposal for the ABX 2015 Conference next November in Boston at which Richard Gage AIA has agreed to speak. Here are the learning objectives we have spelled out: 1. Attendees will learn about the dynamics of the three largest high-rise building collapses in the history of the world, with an overview of the National Institute for Standards and Technology final report issued on July 22, 2004. 2. Participants will learn about the destructive capability of high-rise fires, their inability to overcome protected steel frame construction, and peer-reviewed scientific evidence published after the WTC events (compiled by A & E for 9/11 Truth). The use of explosives commonly used in controlled demolition is directly implied by this evidence, which is reinforced by eye witness testimony. 3. Attendees will be introduced to the issues a confirmed controlled demolition would bring up, including massive loss of life, and the ethics and accountability of those involved, including their prejudicial endorsements of the official National Institute of Safety & Technology 9/11 Report. 4. Participants will explore the unique role the building community can play in the critical debate on how the three World Trade Center skyscrapers were destroyed. As with the debate on climate change, input from professional groups like the AIA and the ACSE to educate the public and support a new investigation should help heal the deep wounds left by the tragedies of 9/11/01.

Occupation: Retired (Mechanical/Nuclear/Aeronautical Engineer)
I started my working career as a piano technician. I went through the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard Machinist Apprenticeship. Later got a BS in Mech E from Seattle University, then spent 4 years with Boeing as a Liaison engineer in the Wing Responsibility Center. Finally worked 16 years with US Navy as a Nuclear/Radiological engineer.
The NIST scenarios are not believable. The WTC 1 collapse is equivalent to crushing two US Nimitz class nuclear carriers in 10 seconds, given that they have about the same amount of structural steel. It's simply not possible. The NIST explanation for the WTC7 collapse is even more ludicrous. Their model shows massive failure at the back of the building, but somehow that doesn't distort the glass windows on the front of the building. I used Working Model 2D to model the effects of the conservation of momentum on WTC1. It showed that the upper stories would be significantly slowed by impact with the lower stories, adding several seconds to a free fall collapse, which takes it outside of the actual collapse time. Ergo, the lower floors were already falling when they were hit by the upper floors. Frankly, I'm extremely disappointed by the almost total lack of curiosity displayed by most of my working colleagues over the years. Lots of really smart guys who lacked the courage to ask a few rather obvious questions.

Occupation: Pilot
I graduated in 2001 from the University of Texas at Arlington with a Mechanical Engineering Degree. During my undergrad education I also interned at a civil engineering firm called V-structural. The company was responsible for making concrete Post Tension (PT) parking garages, bridges and various other large load bearing structures. I graduated from Air Force pilot training in September 2003 and became a KC-135 pilot. I served in the Air Force for 16 years deploying 17 times over the course of my career racking up 3,000+ combat hours in OEF, OIF and OND. While I was in the military I obtained a Masters in Aeronautical Science with an emphasis on Airport Operations from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical Worldwide University. I've completed multiple professional military leadership courses to include compartmentalized classified programs and nuclear OPLAN certifications. Additionally, I served under the highest levels of leadership at Air Mobility Command (AMC) Headquarters in the A3 Operations Division and United States Transportation (USTRANSCOM). I hold FAA licenses of an Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) and am a Certified Flight Instrument Instructor (CFI/CFII). I am currently employed as a First Officer at a legacy airline with a qualification on a Boeing 737-700/800/900.
The publicly accepted narrative is a complete farce. The idea that an airplane with a finite amount of jet fuel heated tempered structural steel resulting in the free fall collapse of two towers is intellectually insulting and appalling. The fact that many people are unaware that the third financial building, WTC-7, collapsed under the same free fall acceleration (because of debris?!?!) with a BBC reporter commenting on its demise having the building in full view behind her is proof our government has been lying to us about the attack all along. There are too many questions unanswered to unequivocally prove that the attacks on 9/11 were committed by flunky pilot 'terrorists' with virtually no flying experience navigating a precise path at a high velocity into three buildings. A virtually IMPOSSIBLE flight path for a large aircraft to make such an approach into the Pentagon also disproves this garbage of a narrative.

I have been researching 911 albeit alone, for the past several years, and although there are many dubious items of interest surrounding the collapse, there can be none as compelling as the footage of molten metal that spills from some of the windows of the South Tower. This item alone and its physical nature, coupled with the pool of molten metal in the basement makes the whole case for a controlled demolition by use of Termite cutters, pretty solid proof.

Coming from a conservative background, I denied and repelled the information he offered, that our own elected officials would murder it's own citizens for any reason. He gave me links to investigate the evidence and certain documentaries to watch. Here I am, almost 3 years later and constantly searching for things I can do to wake people up. The best thing we can do is provide indisputable evidence.

I was licensed in 1962 and practiced in Ohio until 1968. I came to NYC in 1969 and worked on the magazines 'Architectural Record' and 'Architecture Plus'. I practiced as an employee of Richard Dempsey and Norman Jaffe, as well as independently. I have taught continuously since: 27 years at Pratt Institute (Interior Design) and 33 years at NYU (Urban Design and Architecture Studies). I was active from 1982 until 2002 with Architects Designers Planners for Social Responsibility.
I've always blamed the collapse of WTC7 on Rudy Giuliani's fuel tank exploding in that multi-story tall ground-floor space. But seeing (for the first time) those videos shown in the film accompanying this petition-signing request, I agree that the fall was too orderly--much as was the fall of WTC2 that I actually watched go down--to have been generated by a single internal blast. I was surprised to see how many interior columns there were when the plan drawing was briefly shown.

Simply put: office fires can't melt steel, 'terrorists' who are still alive could not have flown planes into a building, and planes cannot disintegrate on impact. There are too many holes in the story and considering that no proper investigation was ever conducted, the whole event is an epic scandal. It is sad how upset people get when I try to convey the facts to them but I no longer care. Something has to be done.

Upon witnessing the destruction of all three WTC buildings on TV as it happened, I have remained highly skeptical that an aircraft colliding with the two towers at the height above the ground that it occurred could have caused the two to collapse in the manner observed, and Building 7, not being hit by aircraft, collapsed in a typical manner by which demolished buildings implode.

I concur with the statements in the film made by architects and engineers. Never has 9/11 seemed to me to be anything but planned. And it was very strategic planning which created a distraction or delay for other events. I always wondered how the structures were able to fall straight down as they did without support from explosives like professional demolitions.

I have examined all the evidence from a wealth of highly qualified scientists, engineers, professionals, experts and specialists I could find, and see no grounds for continuing to believe that the events of 9/11 were the result of a terrorist attack on the United States. It is a travesty of international justice and human rights that there has not been a full independent enquiry and full freedom of the press, and yet legislation has still been passed restricting the rights of individuals all over the world as a result of the perceived threat of islamicist terror mongering.

Having reviewed hours of internet-based testimony regarding 9/11, I conclude the facts just don't add up. I have always been careful to focus on my discipline, architecture, and not try to be a structural engineer; however, I understand enough about structural engineering to question the 9/11 Commission's conclusions. I think it is important to review all the evidence and all the theories toward a more comprehensive explanation. 9/11 in itself was a sad day, but the aftermath has been even more tragic. We don't need a witch hunt, but we do need a better understanding of the facts to aid all of us to make prudent decisions for the future of the world.

I am certain all three towers collapsed with the help of controlled demolition.Much evidence was overlooked, destroyed and ignored by investigators. Not least the live footage from the day which include explosions before the collapses.

I have always had a strange intuitive sense about 9/11: that the official story was not complete. In my research as an intern (striving for licensure), I have watched hours of internet-based testimonies regarding 9/11. In the process, I came across your youtube video ''9/11: Blueprint for Truth-The Architecture of Destruction-114min.'' It simply doesn't make sense that if 9/11 was murder, then why wasn't it clearly investigated like a homicide case?

It was a delibered implosion. A building cannot fall the way it fell.

I'm a senior architect with experience on high rise, healthcare, science and technology, education, and residential projects.
The buildings were demolished. Eye witness accounts, but more importantly my experience and education, indicates the towers were demolished in a precise, controlled manner. There is no greater calling for architects than to protect the health and welfare of building occupants. Denying the truth about 9/11 is contrary to our ethical obligation.

I believe that the NIST is wrong and that all three buildings were taken down by controlled demolition.
